Balancing Beauty, Industry, and Family Welcome to Lake Forest, Aliso Viejo, and Mission Viejo.

Lake Forest: Nature-inspired charm.
Lake Forest is best known for its beautiful lakes, creeks, forest, and open space. Located in the heart of the Saddleback Valley, Lake Forest—which includes the popular communities of Foothill Ranch and Portola Hills—has the charm of a small community with the convenience of a large metropolitan city. Lake Forest Nature Park and the Whiting Ranch Regional Wilderness Park offer acres of outdoor pleasure, and the Sun & Sail Club provides wonderful amenities for the whole family, including pools, sport courts, and picnic areas. Local businesses thrive in Lake Forest as well; stop by Brü Grill & Market for tasty farm-to-table bites, craft beer, wine, and spirits.
Family living is in fine form in Lake Forest, and there are properties available to meet all needs—from lakefront homes, luxury condos, and equestrian estates to townhomes and retirement communities.
Aliso Viejo: Live life inspired.
